KUALA LUMPUR, Oct 28 (Bernama) — The Malaysian Institute of Accountants (MIA) has launched the MIA Sustainability Framework and Strategy Plan, which serves as a central pillar of the Institute’s strategic agenda to integrate sustainability across its operations and to strengthen its efforts in driving the future relevance and resilience of the accountancy profession.
The MIA Sustainability Agenda adopts a two-pronged approach that advocates sustainability for both the accountancy profession and the Institute itself. While the MIA Sustainability Blueprint for the Accountancy Profession (Sustainability Blueprint) drives external sustainability advocacy, the MIA Sustainability Framework and Strategy Plan (Sustainability Framework) focus on embedding sustainability internally within the Institute. Meanwhile, the MIA Sustainability Roadmap (Roadmap) maps out advocacy initiatives and implementation timelines in operationalising the Sustainability Blueprint. Approved by the MIA Council in January 2025, the five-year Roadmap (2025–2029) outlines 169 targeted initiatives coordinated through 16 committees to ensure cohesive and cross-functional execution.
